barrett: 122 months old

We're firmly in the middle of our summer fun!  Barrett has had a great time in art camp - the first week he did animals (drawing, painting, etc.) and this week has been clay.  He's also got a week of robotics camp coming up in a few weeks.  While I'm sure Barrett would be fine to play on his iPad all day, he does appreciate having something new and fun to keep him entertained over the summer.  Plus, it's been so hot this summer that he loves his camps being in air-conditioned buildings.  I've also signed him up for tennis lessons once per week, which he likes much better than the tennis camps I used to sign him up for!  

Likes: not having any cavities -we went to the dentist today

Dislikes:  losing his teeth - he misses them (just lost a molar today!)

How are we already in JULY?  Seriously, this summer is going way too fast, no doubt due to our recent vacations.  While the hubs and I went to Iceland for a week, Memaw and PawPaw treated Barrett and Britton to a Disney World vacation!  They of course had a blast, even though it was blazing hot and humid every day.  I'm not sure who was more tired at the end of every day, the kids or the grandparents!  We got to hear all about their adventures when we got back, and they even got us some souvenirs, which was such a sweet surprise!

July promises to be fun too, with art camp next week!  Britton and Barrett will both be doing ceramics/clay, and they enjoyed their previous art camps, so I have high hopes for this one as well.  It's a good option to get them out of the heat while still having something new to do over the summer.  We've also started running this summer - took a break while we were all out of town, but now we're getting back into the schedule.
